True, it gives the press some excitement in an otherwise boring, hot August in dull, backwater Crawford.
This is from Cindy Sheehan's family:
Hello...
Our family has been so distressed by the recent activities of Cindy, we are breaking our silence and we have collectively written a statement for release. Feel free to distribute as you wish.
In response to questions regarding the Cindy Sheehan/Crawford, Texas issue:
The Sheehan Family lost our beloved Casey Sheehan in the Iraq War and we have been silently, respectfully grieving. We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity agenda of Cindy Sheehan.
She now appears to be promoting her own personal agenda and notoriety at the expense of her son's good name and reputation. The rest of the Sheehan Family supports our troops, our country, and our President, silently, with prayer and respect.
Sincerely,
Casey Sheehan's Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles and Numerous Cousins.
I suppose that the prime oozers would like all to sink into the primordial ooze and reemerge a mutant life form like zombies from the dawn of the dead, devoid of that human nature that opposes totalitarian rule.
And after saying she would camp out every night in her tent, Sheehan made an exception Monday when she stayed in a bed-and-breakfast to prepare for an interview the next morning with ABC News.
